Dog Who Waited 6 Years For A Home Gets Cast In 'Transformers' Movie

Congratulations, Freya!

Ask any movie star — you face a lot of rejection before you finally make it.

That’s never been more true than for Freya, a pup dubbed “Britain's loneliest dog” by the Mirror in May after the outlet learned she had been in the care of Freshfields Animal Rescue in Liverpool for six years. During that time, more than 18,000 potential owners passed her by, despite her being a “sweet” and “friendly” dog.

And shelter workers feared a recent epilepsy diagnosis would reduce Freya’s chances of finding a home even more, they told The Mirror.

The sad story was apparently too much for director Michael Bay to bear. He tweeted on Thursday that he’s giving Freya a role in the new "Transformers 5" movie and will help find her a home.
